Lip Combos and Combinations Megapost Part 2

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

The original lip combo megapost (with just over 150 combinations) hasn’t been updated since late July, so I think it’s about time for an update! Here are 42 additional combinations taken from the past six months… but first, let me point you to some resources you may want to see.

OMG! SO PRETTY! Seriously! Looking at these makes me want to go play with makeup right now! LOL!

But seriously, 2 questions:

1) OMG, how do you to take a pic of your makeup each day for this? I mean, it’s great for us to see on the site, but isn’t it a pain in the butt?

2)How does your boyfriend deal with your lipstick/gloss? I sometimes don’t even wear lip products just because most guys I’ve been with will shy away from kissing me if I’m wearing any lipstick or gloss.

Well, I take photos when I do my makeup, and it helps that people seem to enjoy looking at whatever look I’ve done, so I post and can always come back later on to gather the info It honestly takes less than 5 minutes to take photos of my eyes, lips, and face! I’ve got it down to a science!

Since moving in with my boyfriend, I definitely wear a LOT less lipstick/gloss. When I do want to wear something and still kiss him a lot, I opt for MAC’s prolong/lustrewears since they’re kiss proof (makeout proof – sort of, but not 100%). Usually, though, I’ll don lipstick/gloss before we leave somewhere and get a bunch of kisses in before we leave!

Thank you so much, Christine! I love your lip combo posts.
What would be even greater, would be to see a pic of the lipstick alone on your lips and then with various “overcoats” of gloss.
I wish I hadn´t missed so many great LE items!

I was kind of sad that there weren’t more! I was like, “What?!! That’s it!” I honestly thought it was going to be a bigger post, which, to be frank, is one of the reasons why I’ve put it off for awhile, lol.

Gosh, Vital Spark was kind of a unique color, amongst the permanent line. I’d probably say Lust is Lush lipgelee is the closest Vital Spark is a very peachy-orange color.

Anyways, just thought I’ll share that the Fafi collection is released on 12th Feb in Singapore and because my time zone +8.00, I’ll actually be getting my Fafi when its the 11th in US! This is a first for MAC here! Usually or should I say since my first MAC days, I’ve never heard of Singapore releasing collections earlier than in US or even on the same day as US. We are always weeeeeeeeks behind. For example, the N collection just arrived 2 days ago here… honestly but =.= what the hell.

There are of course advantages because I can look at your reviews and decide beforehand on what I’ll be getting! =D Please please please please please NEVER NEVER EVER give up blogging ya? =D

Your lips are sooo beautiful.. i love all the looks so much, there isnt one that i wouldnt wear. I love you site, i couldnt imagine going a day without it!.. keep up the good work hun!… p.s. how excited are you for FAFI!?!?

hi! just wanted to say i’m new here, but absolutely love your site. i’ve always been a bit intimidated by makeup, but have started playing around and now i am addicted!! thank you soooo much for your tutorials & recommendations. i was inspired to finally go to the MAC counter & ended up with the best foundation match ever (studio fix fluid NC15-i need some sun!) , i am so happy!

in fact, i think i’ll sneak back today & grab a couple of these combos, i never knew how multi-dimensional lip color could be with l/p & l/g combined – thank you for these pics!

Oh I had no idea there could be so many shades/hues of pink! I love all of them – your lips are so pretty! Would love to see them in a brownish shade – maybe you don’t like that shade? I like Bazzarish, looks great on you!

Thank you for doing this much work. These are so helpful! I was just wondering about the pictures of Snob Appeal and Culture Class with Contessa. They appear to be the same picture (I’m crazy and was comparing). I really like the combination and was wondering if you could tell me which it really was. Thanks!
